However, adipocytes are fragile and have been very difficult to separate y size, making studies of size-based effects difficult. We have developed a microfluidic device, adapting the Deterministic Lateral Displacement method, that uses arrays of pillars to separate cells, to work on this large cells. The replication data contains microscopy images of adipocytes post sorting, but still inside microfluidics device plus Coulter Counter measurements of diameter and volume performed on the same cells.</dcterms:description><dcterms:subject>Engineering</dcterms:subject><dcterms:subject>Medicine, Health and Life Sciences</dcterms:subject><dcterms:subject>Microfluidics</dcterms:subject><dcterms:subject>Size-sorting</dcterms:subject><dcterms:subject>DLD</dcterms:subject><dcterms:subject>Adipocytes</dcterms:subject><dcterms:IsCitedBy>Size Separation of Adipocytes - to be submitted to Communication Biology</dcterms:IsCitedBy><dcterms:date>2026-02-26</dcterms:date><dcterms:contributor>Beech, Jason</dcterms:contributor><dcterms:dateSubmitted>2026-02-26</dcterms:dateSubmitted><dcterms:license>CC0 1.0</dcterms:license></metadata>
